This gold sheen obsidian sphere shows off black volcanic glass with a warm golden glow, sometimes called gold cat's eye obsidian. A sphere has no edges or points, so it is traditionally said to radiate energy evenly in every direction, and turning it in your hand reveals new colors and patterns from each side.

Crystal Care
Volcanic glass chips if knocked, so set it down gently and store it on a soft surface away from harder stones. Wipe it with a soft, damp cloth and dry it fully, and cleanse it with sound, smoke or moonlight between uses. For more tips, see our guide to cleansing and charging crystals.
FAQs
Is this real gold sheen obsidian?
Yes. This is natural gold sheen obsidian, and its color, pattern and inclusions vary from piece to piece. Those natural differences are part of what makes each one unique.
What size is it?
Choose from 40-45mm, 50-55mm, 60-65mm, 70-75mm, 80-85mm, 90-95mm or 100-110mm across. The larger spheres are heavy statement pieces.
Does the sphere come with a stand?
A stand is not included with this listing. A simple ring or tripod stand keeps a sphere from rolling and lifts it so the light shows its colors and patterns.
What Is Gold Sheen Obsidian?
Gold sheen obsidian is a type of obsidian, a natural volcanic glass formed when lava cools too fast to crystallize. Fine inclusions aligned during flow reflect light as a golden glow, which is why sellers also call it gold cat's eye obsidian. On a sphere the sheen moves around the surface as you turn it.
